Donington Road Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Hi Guys, As for posting links etc with IE, what I do is I type out the message normally, then switch the "BBCode mode" switch in the top left of the tool bar. I then paste any links etc into my post, pictures, youtube, etc and then switch the "BBCode mode" switch back and place any emoticons where I need them. I'm not sure if it will help any. Hover the cursor over the switch to find which one. Jinty ;-) Great tip Jinty. That does work here using Internet Explorer. It also embeds YouTube videos in the post, that is the YouTube player itself. On the otherhand I will keep using FireFox because IMO IE is the biggest load of out there.

It also embeds YouTube videos in the post, that is the YouTube player itself. On the otherhand I will keep using FireFox because IMO IE is the biggest load of out there. Afternoon Guys, I've wired up the two points on the Goods Loop and the one for the Cattle Dock / Goods release road, and tested with some stock and all seems fine, The crossover rom the Down Main and the Goods Loop Exit Point are coded as 1 so they work together, and I will do the same with both the Goods release Points as well. I'm hoping to do a Video after Lunch and a snooze in the Chair and then I can try uploading it the way that Jinty has tried to explain. Then its just ONE MORE POINT to lay and wire, (the one at the end of the Goods Shed Road for the release), quite sad really as I'm enjoying the slow and steady way of doing it, BUT if and when I get a Lever Frame, or decide to do a control panel the I will need to re wire the Point feeds to it so that's something else to think about later. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew P Posted January 23, 2015 Author Share Posted January 23, 2015 (edited) Jinty Shunting on Bitton, I hope it works this time, there's still some fine tuning to do but at least the Layout works. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d4jMTfbmq6Y&feature=youtu.be EDIT = OBVIOUSLY NOT.

RMweb Gold Donw Posted January 23, 2015 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 23, 2015 I am glad you have been enjoying the trackwork side but I am sure you get round to adding the scenics you will get just as inspired. It is really coming together now. Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordon s Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 (edited) Andy, open up your video and below the film is the word 'share'. Click on that and you will see a code highlighted in blue. Copy that code and just paste it in your post. Just a reminder of the post I made earlier on how to do it….:-) Forgot to say, it looks great! You can't beat hand built pointwork…..:-) Edited January 23, 2015 by gordon s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a reminder of the post I made earlier on how to do it….:-) We are going round in circles Gordon. For some users of Internet Explorer, and that includes Andy, it does not work. There is a problem at RMweb with the use of IE, If you read on from your post 4265 on page 171 all should become clear.

gordon s Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 OK, I have both Safari and IE8 and not had a problem, so apologies I had forgotten. I thought it was fine if you selected the 2013 version of RMWeb though….. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jintyman Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Just a test to see if it works my way....... Jinty ;-) 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jintyman Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Hi Andy, I have tried the above and it worked ok, so, if you don't mind, and you accept that I'm not trying to be condescending in any way, I can run you through it, step by step with screenshots. Firstly, I have 2 windows open, 1 on RMWeb on the thread I'm posting in, the other on Youtube on the video I want to post, in this case, yours. PS: Love the title, "Jinty shunting............", and I've never been to Bitton!!!!! Starting with the youtube window, start the video and then click on the 'SHARE' button. You will get the following in that particular area on the screen. You need to right click on the highlighted text that's shown, and select 'COPY' You then need to go back to the RMWeb thread that you wish to post in, and select 'Reply with attachments' in the bottom RH part of the screen. You will then get the reply box up, and in the top LH corner of the reply box you should see this: If you then click on the button, the toolbar will change slightly leaving only that switch useable, as shown below: When you've written your message, and you wish to place your Youtube link, just select a fresh line, right click, and select paste, the hyperlink should then appear. Once this is done, you can then re switch the top LH corner button and insert smilies, etc. I hope this helps you Andy, in some way at least. And I look forward to seeing some teriffic videos as you progress. Kindest Regards Jinty ;-) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Clive Mortimore Posted January 23, 2015 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 23, 2015 (edited) Dear Mr Peters I am writing to you to inform you that Sergeant Shoutalot will be with you soon. I am sorry for the delay but the Quatermaster, God awful man, came up through the ranks, issued Sergeant Shoutalot with the map that Mortimore let me sit on. The very same one with the crease on it. It appears that Sergeant Shoutalot was also following the crease thinking it was short cut to Bitton. Thankfully Lieutenant Poshname hyphen La de Da has sent corporal whatever his name was to find where they had gone. Captain De'ath, RAMC doctor, has informed me that you will not need so many carriages for the men as some will not be going on leave as he has to put them in hospital due to exhaustion. Yours Lt Colonel La de Da hyphen Poshname Rough Engineering Made Easy PS Both Captain Nearlyposhname, not a bad chap for a grammar school boy, and the Sergeant Major recommend cotton wool for your ears when Sergeant Shoutalot arrives.

RMweb Gold Donw Posted January 23, 2015 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 23, 2015 It is running quite nicely Andy things seem to have come together pretty well. George having a go at turnouts got you started just at the right time. Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HAL 'O THE WYND Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 I'll give it another try. http://youtu.be/d4jMTfbmq6Y My Google goes there at once. (Haven't tried my IE but it was fine in the past) I enjoyed the video. The steam loco without sound is fine by me. (I know, I'm labouring the point ) More importantly from my perspective, the couplings look much better than I anticipated. Previously, I'd not seen them used in quantity on UK stock. 'Way to go for me. Hal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew P Posted January 24, 2015 Author Share Posted January 24, 2015 (edited) Morning all, Dee's in Portsmouth for a few Days, and I'm taking our Greyhound back to the Rescue Centre this morning for her nails to be done and a run in the Paddock, then its back and on with the Layout later. Lee should be up after lunch and we hope to get the dowels in the three Storage Yard boards and if there's time make up the end Scenic board which is basically the four side and the three cross bracings. But with the end board we have to work out a way of aligning it and securing it as it is different to the others in that it has to slide between the outer boards. Back with some more pics and possibly another Video later. Edited January 24, 2015 by Andrew P 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Hi Don, No not yet a while, I want to lay the Storage Yard but as and when Lee can get up we will work out the Lift Out section, that will be a longer and more detailed job thatn all the other boards so were not rushing into doing that until we know just what were going to do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Andrew P Posted January 24, 2015 Author Popular Post Share Posted January 24, 2015 Well after making a right old mess. We managed to get the end Scenic board into position. And its starting to look quite good. Time for a coffee and then a good tidy up before Jeff, (Binney) comes around later for a coffee and Doughnut. Lee's back again tomorrow. 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
